The year's second tennis major gets underway at Roland Garros on Sunday, as the 2024 French Open begins in Paris. Novak Djokovic is the defending champion, while Jannik Sinner won the year's first major down under. Meanwhile, 14-time champion Rafael Nadal is using a protected ranking to be a part of the 2024 French Open men's draw. He will take on Alexander Zverev in the first round, with Zverev coming off three straight semifinals at Roland Garros.

Reigning Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz enters the 2024 French Open men's singles tournament as the +225 betting favorite (risk $100 to win $225). No. 1 seed Djokovic follows at +275, with Sinner at +400. Nadal is a +2200 longshot in the latest French Open 2024 odds.

Before you make any French Open picks or predictions, you must see the French Open 2024 picks from tennis handicapper Jose Onorato.

Onorato grew up playing competitive tennis in Caracas, Venezuela. After coming to the United States, he trained with famed coach Nick Bollettieri at IMG Academy in Florida and faced players like Robert Farah, now one of the world's top-ranked doubles players.

Onorato, who holds dual degrees in finance and economics from the University of Miami, does extensive research before placing any tennis bets. He studies current form, a player's tendencies on a particular surface, weather conditions and many other relevant factors. That systematic approach helped Onorato go 96-67-7 -- up 60.42 units -- in 2022.

Earlier this year, he picked Jannik Sinner as a +700 futures longshot to win the Australian Open, which he did in five sets over Daniil Medvedev.

Now, Onorato has broken down the latest odds for the men's draw of the 2024 French Open and has identified his futures plays.

One surprise: Onorato is fading Djokovic (+180), even though he is the top seed and defending champion. "The physical and tactical demands of the Parisian clay could test his current form, making his prospects at this year's tournament uncertain," Onorato told SportsLine. 

Onorato has thoroughly studied the men's draw and has identified three more futures plays, including one on a longshot who would pay nearly 50-1! You ABSOLUTELY need to see what they are before locking in any 2024 French Open picks of your own!
